Here is a bit of an idea on the layout of the first track that can be changed to multiple options. It doesn't really give you an idea of the size or scope, but is much like the size of Bay Park. Also because we are able to change the layouts, it allows us to cater for all driver abilities. Note too, the areas that are lined are banked areas that you will be able to drift on. Lots of spectator areas to look down on track.

Please get in touch, date to be confirmed but at this stage we are looking for volunteers.

We would like to ask for your input on what you’d actually like a membership to include as drifters in the grassroots area and burnout members. This will help us shape something that’s aligned with the community and sustainable for us to deliver. We’re particularly keen to understand where your interests sit, whether that’s:

Competitions
Matsuri's
Track days
Burnouts
Training days
Or other drift-related opportunities
Also how many times you would realistically use the track monthly or yearly

With regards to the park and so you have a bit of an understanding what our plans are.
Stage 1 is about a 500m track, starting at about a 4m high elevation and dropping down into a bowl and on to some long sweeping, banked corners and then back out of bowl.
Stage 2 will be a Touge track, we are unsure of the length as of yet as much of it still has tree's on it. The Touge will be a track that will have lots of elevation, dropping down banks & hills at angle all through bush, trying to keep the clean green view.

Other stages to be confirmed.

Once we’ve gathered feedback and defined a clear, realistic idea around this, we’ll share full details before reopening or progressing the membership.
Thank you for your patience, your honesty and we genuinely appreciate the support and want to make sure anything we offer is worth your time and money.

One thing to note is, all of this is done voluntarily, we are not charging or making any money building this park, this is not only a non-profit organization but the as founding members we are putting a lot of time and money in to building this park to accommodate as many as we can. We will always do what we can in the interest of the park and those that use it, to give all a place to go.

Please comment below on what you would like in your memberships and usage of the park.

After meeting as a board,
We want to apologise for launching our membership offering without clearly outlining what people would receive clearly or what we could realistically deliver.
That’s our mistake.

Before moving forward, we’re taking a step back to listen to the community and understand what you actually want from a drift club membership — whether that be competitions, matsuris, track days, or something else entirely.
We’ll be asking for your input via our socials shortly, and once we’ve shaped a clear, realistic offering, based around all knowen costs to run these events, ie insurances, H&S, Managment and so on, we’ll share full details before progressing any further.
Thanks for your patience and support

Saturday night and what do Oamaru's junior petrolheads do. They do skids of course. I almost regret posting this as they will probably regard it as some sort of honour to have been recognised, but then I think back to when I was 16. . . . .
